...matter, Wright and the Boys are the finest country, western swing and country rock band in New England--hands down--and they're easy enough to listen to that weekend people up for drinking and dancing in the abstract always tend to ambie in and forget that what they're stomping to isn't too far from the same tradition that brought you "Hee Haw" (though Wright is to Hee Haw as the Stones were to the Monkees). Anyway, just returned from the Big Apple, and featuring the incomparable Spacey John Macey on pedal steel, John Lincoln Wright...
...surrounded by students, faculty, and grounds workers. It occurred to me that, within this context, donating blood took on the dimension of a socially leveling process. In such a socially stratified place as Harvard, where each element conforms to its designated position in the hierarchy, it is easy to forget that we are all made of flesh and, of course, blood.

"I think honestly that it's going to turn around in this quarter," says Joseph B. Lanterman, chairman of Amsted Industries. Says Lee lacocca, president of Ford Motor Co.: "The worst is behind us." Richard Everett, chief domestic economist of the Chase Manhattan Bank, proclaims himself "confident...
...will help explain us to ourselves. That, too, is something Avildsen neatly avoids. Instead, he gives us the movie equivalent of the kind of song the Dancekings themselves might feature. It has a catchy beat and a clear emotional appeal. Easy to watch, the film is also easy to forget-but very pleasant and unpretentious...
